研究目的
Investigating the rapid size-focusing of gold nanoclusters with the addition of an oxidant, K3[Fe(CN)]6, and optimizing the conditions for this process.
研究成果
The addition of K3[Fe(CN)]6 significantly improves the rate of size-focusing of gold nanoclusters, with optimized conditions leading to monodisperse products. The oxidant's role may involve modifying the Au(I):Au(0) ratio, facilitating faster size interconversion.
研究不足
The role of the oxidant in the rate accelerations is unclear, and the study suggests further investigation is needed to understand the mechanism fully.
